Falling for Florence

Missing

I know I’ve been missing in action over here lately.  I promise I’m coming back.  I have so many more adventures I want to share with you.  But we recently moved back to the states and getting settled in and (re)starting our new/old lives has taken more time and energy Read more…

Paris – Just Passing Through

Our next stop on the 18-day, three-country, five-city family friends adventure was a quick three-day pass through of Paris. Why so quick? Well, and here is an unpopular statement – Paris with kids isn’t that great. Okay, don’t come at me. I know that there are tons of great activities Read more…

Winter in Norway Part 2: Bergen (land of the trolls)

   As I’ve said before, what do we do when we are already freezing cold? Head up north even further, of course!   After our 5 days in Oslo, we booked a train headed north to Bergen. **Side note – Norway is actually a huge country (at least long-wise) and Read more…

Winter in Norway, Part 1: Oslo (the city of museums)

After spending almost three weeks freezing our tails off in Switzerland, what did these three hot blooded Houston natives decide they should do? Go somewhere even colder, obviously!
